    I'll give Wolf the benefit of the doubt and assume he meant the refurbished Lambeau Field. If so, he's largely right. I don't think they could have gotten the public funding and seat license funding without the resurgence that Favre had so much to do with.

    But that is like the major renovation Yankee stadium that took place in the mid-'70s. To liken either to the players that "built" the stadium is wrong.

    I give Wolf no breaks. He knew what he said, and he said it for a reason.
